Devil Holds the Tin
06:02
|
|||
Once high above the mountain tops there stood a mighty town
Full of simple miners who blessed what’s in the ground
Rock by rock they changed its face to bring that mountain down
They scratched around on hands and knees their souls are glory
Keeper Keeper
The town has many keepers the devil is only one
They built a church upon his ground a battle to be won
For many men will loose the fight and drink until they’re numb
To work away in child’s play take refuge in the sun
Keeper Keeper
I got to get inside the mountain
Where the devil holds the tin
Kiss the ground with your wine
Tell him all your sins
In the deep and in the dark
You tear it from his limbs
Deep inside the mountain
Where the devil – the devil holds the tin
They say he is the keeper the keeper of the tin
He lives inside the mountain collecting all their sins
Kiss the ground with your wine he lets you dig within
To bathe with all the sinners in the power of the tin
Keeper Keeper
Got to get inside the mountain
Where the devil holds the tin
Kiss the ground with your wine
Tell him all your sins
In the deep and in the dark
You tear it from his limbs
Deep inside the mountain
Where the devil – the devil holds the tin
The town has many keepers the devil is only one
They built a church upon his ground a battle to be won
For many men will loose the fight and drink until they’re numb
To work away in child’s play take refuge in the sun
Take refuge in the sun
Take refuge in the sun
Take refuge in the sun
Take refuge in the sun

Boys Run Wild
04:11
|
|||
When we were born our lives were worlds apart
Now we grow older now it’s very hard
Boys together their innocent youth
Roaming the streets and they’re looking for truth
Hanging out with nothing to do
Dreaming of a life they never knew
Get a job it’s a waste of time
The only way out is a life of crime
Let the boys run wild
Don’t get in their way cause they will never tire
See the boys run wild
Taking to the streets with their anger on fire
They learn to grow up very fast
Men of tomorrow if they last
Fight for survival it’s very bold
Each has a story that needs to be told
When you look into their eyes
The only thing you see is fear
Lots of anger in their hearts
The only words you need to hear
Let the boys run wild
Don’t get in their way cause they will never tire
See the boys run wild
Taking to the streets with their anger on fire
Let the boys run wild – whoa ooh
With their anger on fire
Let the boys run wild – whoa ooh
With their anger - their anger on fire
When you look into their eyes
The only thing you see is fear
Lots of anger in their hearts
The only words you need to hear
Let the boys run wild don’t get in their way cause they will never tire
See the boys run wild taking to the streets with their anger on fire
Let the boys run wild
See the boys run wild
See the boys run wild
With their anger - their anger - their anger on fire
Let the boys run wild
See the boys run wild
Let the boys run wild
Their anger - their anger on fire
Let the boys run wild
See the boys run wild
Let the boys run wild
Taking to the streets their anger on fire

Darkness Falls
05:00
|

Darkness falls Hit the wall
Can’t you see that I’m dying inside
Bring me down to the ground
Leaves a taste that will mess you around
Lookin back thru the years
See the hate and the damage it’s done
Now I’m left basket case
With a head that keeps spinning around
My depression gets me down
Can’t you see I’m black inside
See the darkness falls around
It’s a never ending slide
Someone help can’t you see
There’s no pills to be pulling me up
I need life I need hope
Set me free from this terrible trap
Take me out see the light
Seek an end to the terror in me
But I know that I can’t
Ever wish to be totally free
My depression gets me down
Can’t you see I’m black inside
See the darkness falls around
It’s a never-ending slide
A teardrop falls A bead of sweat
A quickened heart An empty wet
I look to you To heal my soul
Lend me a hand Before I fall
Whoa
Whoa
Darkness falls, Darkness falls, Darkness falls, The Darkness falls
Darkness falls, Darkness falls, The Darkness falls, The Darkness falls

Scarlett
06:07
|
|||
Came in from the country To see the city lights
Said goodbye to her family Gone to find a better life
Looking for adventure Was looking for some fame
Said to mum she’s doing fine She started on the game
I hear it in your voice
I see it in your eyes
No matter what you say
Your life is such a lie
Pretty little dolly girl Look what you’ve become
Got a man, got a habit You thought it would be fun
You try to tell yourself girl It’ll never be hard to stop
You slip into your work clothes You take another shot
I hear it in your voice
I see it in your eyes
No matter what you say
Your life is such a lie
Your life became a gamble You like to play the game
You thought you would be different You’ll never be the same
You took the name of Scarlet We always wondered why
Look into those lonely eyes You can see her telling lies
I hear it in your voice
I see it in your eyes
No matter what you say
Your life is such a lie
Who will come to save you To take away the pain
All the people that love you They’ll never feel your shame
No one knows your secret When they stole your purity
Too young to be the defender Of your own morality
Your life became a gamble You like to play the game
You thought you would be different You’ll never be the same
You took the name of Scarlet We always wondered why
Look into those lonely eyes You can see her telling lies
I hear it in your voice
I see it in your eyes
No matter what you say
Your life is such a lie
I hear it in your voice
Your life is such a lie
I see it in your eyes
Your life is such a lie
I hear it in your voice
Your life is such a lie
I see it in your eyes
Your life is such a lie
LIES LIES LIES

Every town has got one
All know that it’s there
All the people’s coming
You see them every where
Get on down to main street
Under bright city lights
You’ll see them in the shadows
Creatures of the night
Try to sell you freedom
Creatures of the night
Come from different places
Of stories to be told
Some born weak and helpless
Some born strong and bold
All here for a reason
Only way of life
Only got each other
Creatures of the night
Try to sell you poison
Try to sell delight
They’re all here down on main street
The creatures of the night
They huddled in the darkness Stay till early dawn
Do I sell another trick my life is really torn
For them there is a reason A long and lonely fight
Creatures of the night They’re the creatures of the night
To them it doesn’t matter if it’s right or if it’s wrong
Go about their business and sing their lonely song
You need to warm your body on a cold and windy night
It’s all about survival you’re a creature of the night
You’re a creature of the night
You’re a creature of the night
They try to sell you poison They try to sell delight
All here for a reason The only way of life
All hear down on main street The creatures of the night
You’re a creature
You’re a creature of the night
You’re a creature
And you’re a creature of the night
You’re a creature
You’re a creature of the night
You’re a creature
You’re a creature of the night
You’re a creature
You’re a creature of the night
You’re a creature

Demerol Dream
08:14
|
|||
You are my Demerol queen
See you in my Demerol dream
Lighten up my nights
Purpose to the day
See you in so many ways
Cure me thru a brighter haze
Take me to the sky
Can I get much higher
In this crazy place
My vision is of red and green
The brightest I’ve ever seen
Can you see the light
Is it just as bright
Drop them in so many ways
Whiskey helps me thru the day
Spirits dull the pain
I never see the same
With my Demerol dream
Flying thru the stratosphere on crystal meth and coke
Friends and family look at me
They say my life’s a joke
Spend each day with my demons just trying to get by
The destination of my life is trying to get high
Walk the streets and do the crime to get some ready cash
Break into the institute and make off with my stash
Do a line and smoke some weed
So I can feel brand new
I’ll take a drink and make a toast
To all the junkies who yeah
Whoa oh oh whoa whoa whoa oh oh whoa
Why won’t somebody help me are we really worlds apart
Someone take my demons give me light within the dark
Now I’m lost can I be found the circle has no end
Someone take my voices I really need another friend
See you in so many ways
Cure me thru a brighter haze
You take me to the sky
Can I get much higher
In my Demerol dream

Diablo 1-2-3
08:38
|
|||
He stood out against the light
His stories he would tell
And how he’d fight into the night
And dance right into hell
He could taste the victory
From every Latin soul
He would cut away their life his treasure only gold
He’d enjoy the spoils of war
And they would pay the price
There would be no stopping him
No matter how hard you tried
Diablo the Killer Bastardo
Years did pass and he’d amass
A bounty on his head
People tried and people cried
We need Diablo dead
Could they stop this terror reign
Salvage back some pride
Many people thru the years
Had fought and they had died
Who could stop this warrior
From taking off the land
Look above for guidance and
A strong and worthy man
Diablo the Killer Bastardo
Where can they find their saviour
Is there a force that’s coming thru
How can they find a reason
Someone who’s honest and true
Then out of the hills one day
A horseman came to town
He grabbed the challenge with both hands
He threw the gauntlet down
Diablo, said the horseman
Your time round here is thru
For I have come to free this land
And I will conquer you
Diablo Run Diablo Run Diablo Run Run Run
The Horseman rode into their town
An answer to their plea
He rode for many days and nights
To end this tyranny
He’d heard the stories from long ago
Of a man who killed for gold
His hands were quick with nerves of steel
The Horseman fearless and bold
Diablo’ called out the Horseman
I have come to set them free
Your time has come to leave this earth
For I will do the deed
High noon had come as they stood alone
In the sad and desperate town
Not a whisper could be heard
As they stared each other down
Diablo drew – the Horseman knew
And a single shot rang out
Diablo dead the people cried
Our freedom still in doubt
Was justice done a legend born
Is for others to behold
To this day of years gone past
His story will be told
No one knew the Horseman’s name
As he rode out of the town
A single shot was all it took
To take Diablo down
A single shot all too quick to take Diablo’s crown
A single shot is all it took to take Diablo down
A single shot all too quick to take Diablo down

Soul Taker
04:45
|
|||
I met a preacher the other day
Put a curse on me I need to pray
I got it coming for the things I’ve done
There’s nowhere to hide my time has come
I don’t mind what he had to say
Been living it hard it’s time to pay
A fire is raging in the setting sun
Well come on boy you’re time has come
See the rainbow in his eye
Hold him close and kiss the sky
When the taker comes for you
Your lies become the truth
I’m not a bad man but I do bad things
I pay my dues for all those sins
Did I choose him did he choose me
Untie my hands and set me free
I like the heat I like it wrong
Don’t weep for me when I’m gone
I’m a bad man in a black hole
The taker is coming to take my soul
See the rainbow in his eye
Hold him close and kiss the sky
When the taker comes for you
Your lies become the truth
When he comes to collect you The battle won’t be won
You had your time to make amends but you never got it done
Soul taker Soul maker He’ll suck the life from you
Death dealer Soul stealer He’s reaching out for you
I met a preacher the other day
Put a curse on me now I need to pray
I got it coming for things I’ve done
Nowhere to hide my time has come
I don’t mind what he had to say
Been living it hard it’s time to pay
A fire is raging in the setting sun
Well come on boy you’re time has come
See the rainbow in his eye
Hold him close and kiss the sky
When the taker comes for you
Your lies become the truth
See the rainbow in his eye
Hold him close and kiss the sky
When the taker comes for you
Your lies become the truth
See the rainbow in his eye
Hold him close and kiss the sky
When the taker comes for you
Your lies become the truth

I Turn to Stone
06:08
|
|||
I was born yesterday
Trouble seemed so far away
Now it seems my friends no longer call
Everything was better then
I can still remember when
I saw the future with a certain glow
So I turned to stone
As I learned to know
When I turned to stone
Tell myself I'm feeling all alone
Many days have passed me by
Celebrate with sunny skies
Still I know I need a helping hand
And the friends I thought I knew
See them change my every view
Now it seems I'm seeing them as they really are
Now I turned to stone
As I learned to know
When I turned to stone
Tell myself I'm feeling all alone
I was born yesterday
Trouble seemed so far away...

Shotgun Afternoon
06:27
|
|||
A thousand stars shine brightly on a northern winter sky
The wind howls from the east lands over cold and frosty night
Screaming out in terror and no one knows they’re fate
And no one saw the shadow as it crashed the wooden gate
It freaked the cattle grazing as they forged tortured ground
The town’s folk huddled tightly trying not to make a sound
The voice that drove and told him She was the spawn of Satan’s seed
To end her life so early He’d done the cherished deed
He’d spent his life secluded Certified insane
Crippling medication It’s all part of the game
What could it be that shook the night a girl just seventeen
Who held the knife that cut so deep ending worldly dreams
How would his life unfold would someone mediate
And what of our young seventeen for her it’s just too late
Somebody get me a shotgun
Somebody get me a shotgun
Somebody get me a shotgun
Somebody get me a shotgun
Somebody get me a shotgun
Somebody get me a shotgun
Somebody get me a shotgun
Somebody get me a shotgun - NOW

Swamp Moon
05:44
|
|||
He casts no shadow where he stands
In the cold white light of the swamp moon
A fog descends the urban waste land
And he’s comforted by this blanket of doom
Inhaling deeply the thick toxic waste
For which he’s developed quite a taste
The very essence from which he exists
An insatiable appetite for society’s waste
Tonight he’ll fill his deepest hole
As you slumber he’ll be hard at work
Devouring a million poor lost souls
From another online social network
Then rose the creature from the nuclear murky slime
No soul, emotion, a being of modern time
What’s its purpose, what is it here to do
Can there be a future for the likes of me and you
Oh lord the earth is dying
There’s nothing we can do
Satan is rising creating something new
All life has perished, oh what shall unfold
A brand new chapter, this story to be told
So an end to a planet we once knew
All light and life and energy withdrew
Now just a chasm of dead decaying waste
What brings tomorrow, what will take our place
As he reaches out to you, take his hand
And dance dance to a different tune
And cast no shadow when you stand
In the cold white light of the swamp moon
The swamp moon He’s toxic and He’s coming to get you
As he reaches out to you take his hand and dance dance
He’s coming to get you in the cold white light
There’s nothing we can do ooh He’s coming to get you

Loaded Billy Adelaide, Australia
Loaded Billy an Adelaide stoner hard rock band. Their sound owes much to the NWOBHM (New Wave of British Heavy Metal)
movement and is reminiscent of classic "British Steel" era Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, early Def Leppard and bands like Budgie.
An amalgam of great melodies, awesome vocals, big riff driving guitars and a pounding kick-arse rhythm section with songs that explore a variety of topics
